Well, Thursday I did. Call Garry @ Newport on Monday, picked them up at UPS instead of waiting all day to receive them. Got them put on and immediately took a 180 mile 2 day trip with the wife, that's why it's so dirty.
I do want to thank Garry for a great deal, and fast shipping. I also want to thank Zach @ Discount tire ext. 1875 for taking care of the tires. I ordered Bridgestone Pole Positions 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 also on Monday and received those on Wednesday.
I went ahead and took out the tpms sensors from the 124s and put them on these.
I have my 124s on ebay unless someone want to make an offer here, I will put an ad in the classified section here as well.
Below is the before and after(but before and good cleaning)
Thanks,
Brian

Damn....that IS dirty! 
Rims look good, though. Glad you were able to post the completed product after all of your decision making.
Before you wash up the car, I'd take off the rims then sand and paint your rusted rotors/hubs and calipers with some Dupli-Color Caliper paint to match the OEM color, if you want. I am pretty sure I see rust?

Then I want to see you use some chrome polishing wadding to remove that black crap from the exhaust tips.
Then...M-tech kit!
